Understanding Carbs in a Beef Taco Salad
The Keto Taco Salad Casserole recipe allows you to easily adjust the carb content based on your preferences. The carbs come from the veggies you use, so you can increase or decrease them as needed. For example, you can add more onions for a higher carb version or omit them for a lower carb version.
Keto-Friendly Mexican Dishes
Mexican cuisine is one of our favorites, but it can be challenging to enjoy while following a keto diet due to the high carb content of tortillas and rice. However, we’ve found ways to adapt and create keto-friendly Mexican dishes. You can start with these recipes and experiment with different ingredients to find your favorites.
Storing and Reheating
When it comes to meal prepping, it’s essential to know how long the dish will last in the fridge, whether it freezes well, and the best way to store it. The Keto Taco Salad Casserole can last up to 10 days in an airtight container and reheats great in the microwave. You can also freeze it for up to one month. For fresh toppings like lettuce, sour cream, and cheese, it’s best to store them separately and add them to the casserole when you’re ready to eat it.
Easy Keto Taco Salad Casserole
This recipe is perfect for a family of six or for meal prep for two. Even non-keto family members will enjoy it, and you can easily cook a side of rice to satisfy everyone. Feel free to experiment and adjust the recipe to your liking.
